I will check for you when my wife gets home.
I must say that the guys are struggling to get the alignment right, I'm taking the P tomorrow again to check the alignment.
The rear tyres keep on running on the outsides. I don't think its a issue with the spacers, more a human issue......

Nismo and the other interested members,
Pajero toe-in and the rest of the suspension settings.
The only way to ensure that the "technician" adjust the suspension to the factory speck is to join him in the pit and then to "force" him to set the needles to the centre of the green indications. This is where the suspension is 100% set to specification! Normally they (the technicians) say that when the needle is in the green it is close enough and remember, to set it 100% is HARD work!!!.
You must also check the the adjustment bolts are turning freely and are not stuck in the rubbers due to rust - in the front both lower bolts per side and at the back the two lower as well as the toe-in adjuster higher up. If anyone of them is stuck, you have a bit of a problem. I was fortunate, I detected rust on the lower rear bolts (still under maintenance plan) and they were replace by the agents . At about 95 000km I found that the front ones as well as the upper rear ones were also on their way out. After much fighting and in the end fighting at Misu HQ, these were also replaced at their cost. After that I striped them out and had them plated as a preventative measure. They should now last a wee bit longer.

Going to Autoquip in Centurion tomorrow to have the spacers fitted. Will do some before and afters.zeek wrote:Hello
Have nto had time to fit mine either, been away.
Are the possible results the same on the Gen 3 and 4? Surely that cant be the stop against another bolt. Many many Pajero has been lifted like this. Uys says he has sold many kits.
Anyway have to wait a bit before fitting, as we only have one car at the moment.

I had the spacers fitted on Saturday at Autouquip in Centiruion, took 4 hours but was neatly done. The owners reckon they do many of those a week. Some pictures before and after.
Teh ride feels very much similar as before, possibly less roll than before but on the main is the same. Drove back on highway from Pretoria to Roodepoort all smooth.

- And before...
- Arm bolt hanging free with wheel off, could get whoel finger in there
- CV angle hanging free, top arm disconnected and bar not touching bottom bolt
- 4 hours in the stirrups
- Spacer from bottom
- CV angle after fit and resting on wheel
- After spacer fitted with wheel haning the arm was nto close to he bolt. Could still fit finger tip in there easily
- Front
- Back wheel little higher as front tried to keep the original ratio
- Think looks very good and balanced, not too much just enough

Riku,
That is looking awesome!!! Doesn't look as though the droop is an issue at full extenion it still doesn't touch. Would you please post some measurements when you get a chance, and also which size did you go for in the end?

Thanks David, very happy with it.Davidvan wrote:Riku,

Yes the droop does not seem to be a problem.
I went for
Front set, 25mm spacer, 45mm lift
Rear set, 21mm spacer, 50mm lift
Measurements
Before
Front L = 701 Front R = 702
Rear L = 733 Rear R = 730
AFTER
Front L = 746 Front R = 747
Rear L = 783 Rear R = 780
Was measured from bottom of the rim to the wheel arch through the Mitsubishi badge. Might be a millimeter or two out. Forl old 2002 coils I think that is brilliant.

Thanks Riku - will be getting mine installed soon!
Just returned from a trip to the CKGR & Moremi, and the belly did touch the sand a few times on the sandy stretch between Xade and New Xade.
Looking forward to the lift!

Yeah go for it. The vehicle still looks "natural" with the extra lift. Is a pretty thing makes it look greatGemaskerde Tuinvurk wrote:Thanks Riku - will be getting mine installed soon!

David after your PM,
This red circle is where the rubber spacer fits around, make sure it is cut correct ti fit around the cone tight, and that the surrounding "lip" will still keep the coil in place, Good luck
